This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled net: ethernet: davinci_emac: Fix platform_data overwrite to the linux-3.19.y-queue branch of the 3.19.y-ckt extended stable tree which can be found at: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git/ubuntu/linux.git/log/?h=linux-3.19.y-queue This patch is scheduled to be released in version 3.19.8-ckt20. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please reply to this email. For more information about the 3.19.y-ckt tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Kamal ---8<------------------------------------------------------------ From 11e2133a50bcf22a86cf7da90fc1da7b2a99d5ee Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Neil Armstrong <narmstrong@baylibre.com> Date: Wed, 20 Apr 2016 10:56:45 +0200 Subject: net: ethernet: davinci_emac: Fix platform_data overwrite commit 210990b05a1247886539078e857cd038881bb2d6 upstream. When the DaVinci emac driver is removed and re-probed, the actual pdev->dev.platform_data is populated with an unwanted valid pointer saved by the previous davinci_emac_of_get_pdata() call, causing a kernel crash when calling priv->int_disable() in emac_int_disable(). Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address c8622a80 ...
